Last month, It came from the Blog got together for another Battleground Bonanza. We split into the appropriate battleground group ranges and enjoyed some PvP with our fellow Bloglings and Lurkers. I was in the level 60 to 70 range and we worked on our AV rep by doing the quests and a couple runs.

While we had fun, I think that the queues make this a not great group event. Also, the fact that we have to split up into so many different ranges is not exactly conducive to good screenshots and guild interaction. So I think Battleground Bonanza II will be our last. But that doesn't mean I've given up on It came from the Blog PvP events. Next month, I've got another idea in mind for beating up on our fellow players, if that's your thing. So stay tuned.

In the meantime, we'll be having our Love is in the Blog event tomorrow. Please join us!

It came from the Blog is holding its second Battleground Bonanza today:

• When: Saturday, January 16th, 4:30pm EST (1:30pm PST, 2:30pm Server time)
• Where: The Hall of the Brave (where the Battlemasters are), Orgrimmar, Zangarmarsh U.S.
• Who: Any level 10 or above Horde character.
• How: Ask any It came from the Blog Lurker or Robinator for a guild invite.
• What: Battleground premades

We will be forming groups and hitting as many level/group-size appropriate BGs as we can for an hour or so. If you can't make it to the Hall of the Brave in time for the event, you will miss out on the first screenshot, but will still be able to participate. We will also be doing some BG related quests, so there will be some traveling for certain level ranges.

If you are unfamiliar with Battleground play, please do some homework so that it will be more fun for both you and your teammates. Also, if you have any questions about the WoW.com guild, please read our FAQ.

Come join the fun!

I feel the need... the need for another Battleground Bonanza! This Saturday, join It Came from the Blog for some Battleground fun. Here are the particulars:

• When: Saturday, January 16th, 4:30pm EST (1:30pm PST, 2:30pm Server time)
• Where: The Hall of the Brave (where the Battlemasters are), Orgrimmar, Zangarmarsh U.S.
• Who: Any level 10 or above Horde character.
• How: Ask any It came from the Blog Lurker or Robinator for a guild invite.
• What: Battleground premades

Robinator, my constantly underdressed (they're called trousers, I swear!) level 69 mage, will be playing in the 60's range BGs. We will be forming groups and hitting as many level/group-size appropriate BGs as we can for an hour or so. If you can't make it to the Hall of the Brave in time for the event, you will miss out on the first screenshot, but will still be able to participate. If you are unfamiliar with Battleground play, please do some homework so that it will be more fun for both you and your teammates.

Last time, the groups in the 10s, 20s and 50s seemed to have the most fun. If this is your first character on Zangarmarsh, I highly recommend bringing up a Death Knight before the event. If you have any questions about It came from the Blog, see our FAQ.

Last week, some PvP minded It came from the Bloggies got together for our first Battleground Bonanza. We split into groups according to our level brackets and had some Battleground fun. Mike Schramm lead the 20s group and I lead the 60s group. There were also teens and 50s groups. We had quite a bit of Achievement spam, daily BG quest completions and honor earning. And, as you can see from the pictures in the gallery, the requisite number of deaths.

As the night wore on, the queue times became painful. So next time -- and I think we had enough fun for there to be a next time -- we'll try for during the day on the weekend. Before we do that, however, we have the Elwynn Extravaganza this Saturday and a Feast of Winter Veil event to be announced soon.

Are you ready for the Battleground Bonanza tonight? A few It came from the Bloggies have been leveling their characters to either the 10 to 19 range or the 60 to 69 range, though I'm sure we'll have attendees in the other ranges too. Here are the details:

• When: Wednesday, December 2, 11:00pm EST (8:00pm PST, 9:00pm Server time)
• Where: The Hall of the Brave (where the Battlemasters are), Orgrimmar, Zangarmarsh U.S.
• Who: Any level 10 or above Horde character.
• How: Ask any It came from the Blog Lurker or Robinella for a guild invite.
• What: Battleground premades

We will do whatever Battlegrounds are appropriate for our level ranges and numbers. I want to at least do a couple AVs in the 60 to 69 range, regardless of how many people show up, because even a small premade is great for defending Galv and recapping the towers.

If you are unfamiliar with Battlegrounds, but still want to join, please study up on the strategies. I don't recommend you attend if you get frustrated by multiple deaths, but we'll be having a couple of non-PvP events this month so you can still have a good time with us soon.

Please log on a little before the event so we can start on time. I can't wait!

I love Battlegrounds. I think they all have their positives, though my favorite is still Alterac Valley. So I've been wanting to hold an It came from the Blog BG event for a while and I've decided it's time... Time for the first Battleground Bonanza! Here are the details:

• When: Wednesday, December 2, 11:00pm EST (8:00pm PST, 9:00pm Server time)
• Where: The Hall of the Brave (where the Battlemasters are), Orgrimmar, Zangarmarsh U.S.
• Who: Any level 10 or above Horde character.
• How: Ask any It came from the Blog Lurker or Robinella for a guild invite.
• What: Battleground premades

Though any Battleground level character is invited, I will be playing on Robinella, who is a level 60 Death Knight and will therefore be playing in the 60 to 69 range BGs. We will be forming groups and hitting as many level/group-size appropriate BGs as we can for an hour or so. If you can't make it to the Hall of the Brave in time for the event, you will miss out on the first screenshot, but will still be able to participate. If you are unfamiliar with Battleground play, please do some homework so that it will be more fun for both you and your teammates.

More details are after the break.
